Provided by Hannah, this is a backstage interview on the day of Editors' appearance at Hear Hear Festival, 14th August 2022. Big thanks to you for sharing, H.
I'm amazed by the shift in mechanics surrounding this new record. We knew Blanck Mass was invloved in the recording of EBM early on, but the more we hear the more it sounds like he was the prime instigatator. It's fascinating the trajectory that Editors have taken, and how maleable they are as a unit in 2022. The band that put out the Back Room in 2005 is now 6 people strong, filming their own videos with in-house personnel and contacts (Karma Climb), are capable not only of self-production (In Dream) but also of totally changing the chief source of the songwriting.
Depending on the context, progressive is a terrible word, yet overall how could this be defined as anything but? It's been quite the evolution over 20 years.
